medical record and indicate the duration for the PRN order, for 1 of 3 residents (Resident #132) reviewed
for chemical restraint, in that:

During an Interview with the Nursing Supervisor on 5/27/25 at 8:25 AM, it was confirmed Resident #132
had an order for Xanax 0.5 mg every 8 hours PRN indefinite, and the order should have only been for 14
days. The Nursing Supervisor stated she did not know why the order was written over 14 days, as overuse
could place Resident # 132 at risk for respiratory depression. The Nursing Supervisor confirmed she was
responsible for overseeing this task daily and currently monitored it at random, which was why the deficient
practice was an oversight.
Record review of the facility's policy titled, Psychotropic Medication Use Policy, dated 2001, revised July
2022, revealed, .PRN orders for psychotropic medication are limited to 14 days.

Procure food from sources approved or considered satisfactory and store, prepare, distribute and serve
food in accordance with professional standards.
Based on observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to ensure food was stored, prepared,
and served under sanitary conditions for 1 of 1 kitchen reviewed for food served under sanitary conditions.
Residents Affected - Many
The handwashing sink's water drainage box was dirty with a black substance and the drainage plug was
loose.
A large frying pan was on the kitchen floor beneath a cooking table and near the cooking stoves.
These failures could place residents at risk for food contamination, food borne illness and a diminished
quality of life.
The findings included:
Observation on 5/27/25 at 1:05 PM of the kitchen reflected a dirty drainage box at the location of the wash
sink. The drainage box was dirty, had a dark substance on the surface, and the drain plus was not secured.
During an interview on 5/27/25 at 1:05 PM, the Dietician stated the drainage box needed to be cleaned and
sanitized. The Dietician stated the dirt on the drainage box which captured the staff washing their hands in
the sick had the potential to lead to an unsanitary condition in the kitchen. The Dietician added the
unsanitary condition of the drainage box could lead to food borne illnesses.
During an interview on 5/27/25 at 1:07 PM, the FSS stated the drainage box was dirty and the plug was
loose. The FSS stated the loose drainage plug could create a spillage of water containing substances from
hand washing by staff. The FFS stated the drainage plug had to be secured and the drainage box cleaned
of the dirt and the dark substance. The FSS had no explanation for the drainage box being dirty and the
water plug loose.
Observation of the kitchen on 5/27/25 at 1:10 PM revealed a large frying pan was on the floor under a steel
cabinet near the cooking stoves.
During an interview of 5/27/25 at 1:11 PM, [NAME] B stated he had not seen the large frying pan on the
floor under the steel cabinet. [NAME] A stated the large frying pan on the floor created unsanitary
conditions and needed to be washed and sanitized. [NAME] A stated the frying pan on the floor had the
potential to lead to food contamination.
During an interview on 5/27/25 at 1:12 PM, the Dietician stated the frying pan should not have been on the
floor under a cabinet. The frying pan on the floor was unsanitary. The Dietician stated the large frying pan
was also needed for the cooking of meals. The Dietician stated the frying pan on the floor had the potential
to lead to food contamination and food borne illnesses.
During an interview on 5/27/25 at 1:13 PM, the FSS stated it was not okay for a large frying pan to be on
the floor and un-noticed by kitchen staff. The FSS stated the frying pan needed to be cleaned and sanitized
before any use to prevent food borne illnesses. The FSS had no explanation for the frying pan being on the
floor.

Safeguard resident-identifiable information and/or maintain medical records on each resident that are in
accordance with accepted professional standards.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on the
interview and record review, the facility failed to ensure, in accordance with accepted professional
standards and practices, that medical records were accurately maintained for each resident, as
documented for 1 of 4 residents (Resident #132) reviewed for the accuracy of their medical records.
The facility failed to ensure that documentation on Resident #132's chart accurately reflected an allergy to
Azithromycin (an Antibiotic).
This failure could place residents at risk of receiving improper care.
Findings included:
Record review of Resident #132's face sheet, dated 5/27/25, revealed the resident was admitted to the
facility on [DATE] with diagnoses that included: hypertension (medical term used when the force of your
blood against arterial walls is consistently too high), asthma (condition in which a person's air ways
becomes inflamed, which makes it difficult to breath), and anxiety disorder (mental condition characterized
by excessive and persistent feelings of fear, that significantly interferes with daily life function).
Record review of face sheet for Resident #132, dated 5/27/25, revealed no allergies.
Record review of Resident #132's BIM's assessment, completed 5/27/25, revealed a BIM's score of 15,
which indicated cognition was intact.
Record review of Resident #132's hospital discharge paperwork, dated 5/22/25, revealed an allergy to
azithromycin (an antibiotic).
Record review of Resident #132's monthly physician order summary for May 2025 reflected no orders for
azithromycin.
Interview with Resident #132 on 5/27/25 at 10:55 AM revealed she had an allergy to azithromycin (an
antibiotic), which causes severe skin itching if consumed.
Interview with LVN A on 5/29/25 at 9:15 AM revealed that she was the admission nurse on 5/24/25 and was
not informed in a hospital nurse report that Resident #132 had any allergies; she only reviewed the
medication list from the hospital to enter orders. LVN A noted that she must have missed the allergy to
azithromycin when transcribing orders, and that Resident #132 risked having an allergic reaction if she was
prescribed azithromycin since it was not accurately documented on the face sheet.
Interview with the Nursing Supervisor on May 29, 2025, at 10:20 a.m. revealed she was responsible for
auditing new admissions for accuracy. Because Resident #132 was admitted on Saturday, 5/24/25, and
Monday, 5/26/25, was a holiday, she was unable to verify the orders for accuracy. The Nursing Supervisor
added that the allergies not reflected on the Resident #132's face sheet could lead a physician to possibly
prescribe azithromycin, which could result in an allergic reaction.
Record review of the facility's policy charting and documentation, dated 2001, revealed
